MANAGEMENT OF NECROTIZING FASCIITIS WITH DEBRIDEMENT : A CASE STUDY

Necrotising fasciitis (NF) is a severe, devastating soft tissue infection characterised by rapidly progressing tissue necrosis. The infection may start along the fascial plane and cause symptoms including erythematous, painful and oedematous skin lesions, which often rapidly deteriorate to haemorrhagic blisters, anaesthesia, and gangrenous necrosis over several days. We describe a clinical case with Necrotizing Fasciitis. A 48 years old man, who presented with NF on the Right gluteal region.
